after ipl's alleged snub of pakistani players thereby hurting their national pride... ipl received scathing criticism not only from across the border but from home as well...

ipl, being a commercial tournament, could not risk their brand being maligned by one and all... so they decided to act swiftly...

an urgent meeting was called and invitees were ipl administrators... franchisees... pakistani players with the pride of pakistan being the special invitee... (hence forth will be mentioned as PoP...)

franchisees tried to sooth the tempers by trying to explain 'issues' that prevented them from picking pakistani players... with srk leading from the front... he even announced that he too felt humiliated...

but pakistani players were understandably seething with anger and they were hurling some unmentionable explicits on everybody in sight... while mourning about the PoP at the same time... and needless to say any talk that made sense was shunned completely... and fell on deaf ears...

PoP was asked to put forward his views to divert the situation... and he started with...

"though at first i was not sure that i was hurt... but since so many of my beloved followers kept repeating my name... i also started to feel that there must be some truth in it... but, as a matter of fact, now i am of the opinion that i was indeed hurt, humiliated and humbled..."

rather than diverting the issue PoP statement acted like fuel on fire and the situation was about to take a turn for the worse with nobody willing to understand what was being said...

modi being the guy who knows how to keep calm and work out the way against all adversities... decided to talk in a universal language that even dumb can speak and deaf can hear...

and lo...

$ituation $tarted to calm down... $uddenly better $ense $tarted to prevail... everybody was all ears to what the other was $aying... everybody was seen nodding the same head which was swaying like a hanging clock pendulum not so long ago... and the matter was amicably resolved in the end...

PoP made the $tatement...

"now that matter has $ettled amicably by the remarkable zest and maturity $hown by all concerned... i think i can take well deserved rest..."

$ince the mission was accomplished with pride of nation being re$tored... pakistani players were willing to forget and forgive... the change in their $tance was so remarkable that they $tarted to hug the $ame franchisees they were hurling explicits at... not $o long ago...

the base price of restoring the PoP and pakistani players was again set at $250K...
